摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes an image carrier, a charging unit that charges the image carrier, a latent image forming unit that forms a latent image on the image carrier, a developing unit that develops the latent image to form a toner image, a transferring unit that transfers the toner image to a recording medium, a cleaning unit that cleans toner remaining on the image carrier, a lubricant applying unit that applies a solid lubricant to a surface of the image carrier, and a detecting unit that detects whether the image carrier is brand new. The toner has an average roundness of 0.94 or more. The lubricant applying unit is operated when the detecting unit detects that the image carrier is brand new.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus is provided having an image carrier, a charging unit, an exposing unit, a developing unit, a transfer unit, a cleaning mechanism, and an application mechanism, in which the developing unit supplies a toner, free from zinc and having an average circularity of at least 0.93, to the latent image to make visible the latent image, and wherein the cleaning mechanism cleans the image carrier, and the application mechanism applies a lubrication agent preferably formed of zinc stearate on the image carrier, such that the zinc amount on the surface of the image carrier after a cleaning process and an application process is from 0.4 to 2.5 atm %.
摘要:
A cleaning device, a process cartridge, an image forming apparatus and toner are disclosed to maintain improved cleaning performance for a long time. The cleaning device includes a cleaning blade, an antifriction agent coating part and a toner removing part. The cleaning blade is disposed in contact with a surface of an image support body. The antifriction agent coating part coats a solid antifriction agent on the surface of the image support body, and is disposed in an upstream side from the cleaning blade with respect to a rotational direction of the image support body. The toner removing part removes toner particles, and is disposed in an upstream side from the antifriction agent coating part with respect to the rotational direction of the image support body.

摘要:
An lubricant for electrophotography is applied to a latent image carrier that is supplied with toner having a sphericity of 0.94 or more. The lubricant for electrophotography is added with an inorganic additive having the following relationship: 2Y/1000≦X≦Y/10where Y is a toner particle size (micrometer), and X is an inorganic additive particle size (micrometer).

摘要:
A cleaningless image forming apparatus of the present invention uses spherical toner grains on surfaces of which a charge control agent and/or organic fine grains are present, thereby enhancing efficient image transfer. A brush roller collects, among toner grains left on a photoconductive drum after image transfer, toner grains of polarity opposite to preselected polarity and then releases them to the drum at preselected timing. The toner grains of opposite polarity are then transferred to an intermediate image transfer belt. When the toner grains of opposite polarity pass a charging zone assigned to a charge roller, a bias to the charge roller is interrupted or the charge roller is released from the drum.
摘要:
A cleaning unit includes a first blade and a second blade. The first blade is in contact with an image carrier or a paper carrier and removes adhered substances remained on surface of these. The second blade has an abrasive layer that is formed by including abrasive particles in an elastic material and is disposed in the downstream side of the first blade. The second blade is allowed to be in contact with the image carrier 1 or the paper carrier. Volume occupancy of abrasive particles in an area of contact of the second blade with either the image carrier or the paper carrier is not less than 50 percent and not more than 90 percent.
